My iPhone 4 stuck in the "connect to iTunes" screen after trying to update to iOS 7

Hey guys.
So i have a pretty big problem here. Today after a little bit of work I updated my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 7. I went to bathroom at some point, while my phone was updating, and when i returned the screen of iPhone showed the "connect to iTunes screen" and no matter what I did, it just stayed there. iTunes doesn't recognize my phone anymore, doesn't matter how many time I plug it in and out. I tried this thing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 ,but it did not worked. I tried reinstalling my iTunes, but it did not work either. If the little things matter I left "lauch iTunes" box unchecked after reinstallation. Any help apriciated guys, im desperet here.

YESSSSSSS HUGE PROBLEM!
Iphone 4 downloaded ios 7 i hit the install button and the phone entered recovery mode and hasnt woke up since, tried tiny umberella and it wont kick it out of recovery mode. Itunes recognizes it in recovery mode, hit update restore, after the update nothing pops up or happens, and right back to square one like i never even updated or restored.
Help pleaseeee

HT201263 My iPhone 4 is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes screen" after trying to update to iOS 7.0.4! Help!

I was attempting to update my iPhone 4 to the new iOS 7.0.4 via my computer after I plugged it in to create a backup copy and something went wrong before it could finish and I recieved an error message. Now my phone is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes screen". I've tried everything to reset & restore my phone with no luck!
I have:
-Restarted my computer
-Updated iTunes to most current version
-Turned phone on and off several times, waiting up to a half hour before turning on (to be greeted directly with apple logo then the connect to iTunes screen)
-Turned on, turned on and held home button (nothing happens)
-My computer is NOT recognizing my device at ALL! But when I plugged my boyfriends iPhone in, it detected it no problem.
I tried calling my phone from the other phone and it goes straight to voicemail. I am super frustrated! Does anybody know what is going on?

I was able to restore my phone!!!
I called Apple and they said there was nothing more I could do. I called my carrier Verizon and was able to get my computer to recognize my device after trying this-
Solution:
After trying EVERYTHING this is the ONLY thing that worked-
I took the USB connector cable out of the USB port it was in, and tried another one on the otherside of my laptop and iTunes was able to discover my phone in recovery mode. My phone was reset and everything is fine ( thank gosh for backup copies!)

My iPad 2 is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen after trying software update

I was updating my software on my iPad 2. Now it is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen. Help!

That is telling you to connect to iTunes on your computer because now you need to restore the device. Something went wrong when you updated. So connect you iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore.

IPhone 4: My IPhone keeps in the "plug-into-iTunes-screen" after trying to update to iOS 5.0. The phone is not showing up as a device in iTunes anymore.

My IPhone doesn't turn on and keeps in the "plug-into-Tunes-screen" after update to new IOs 5.0 yesterday. I also tried to restore it, but it still keeps in the plugin mode. In ITunes the IPhone doesn't show up as a device anymore, but Windows 7 detects it as a camera. I started the problem diagnose via ITunes and it says "iPhone can't be found".I'm using the new version of iTunes.
Can anyone help me?

I have the exact same problem and have just logged on here to see if anyone can help also? My iphone is up and working but itunes won't recognise it as a device... just updated itunes aswell.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

Hold down the Home and Power button to shut off the iPhone. Keep it disconnected from the computer. Then, hold down the Home for 20 seconds. Connect it to the computer while continuing to hold down the Home button. Wait for iTunes to say your iPhone is in Recovery mode. Then, restore.

My iPod is stuck at the "Connect to iTunes" page after trying to update

I tried updating my iPod to iOS 6 just after it came out, but my iPod never made it through the process. Just after backing up and restoring, I got an error message saying my computer could not connect to the iPod anymore, and it hasn't connected since. I'm still stuck at the "connect to iTunes" page, and I've tried reinstalling iTunes, and I've gone through all of the support pages on the apple website. I'm running windows 7 64 bit, and I was on iOS 5.1.1.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have an iPhone 3g 8GB model. Stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' screen after update of 4.2 iOS. Solutions please?

I did the 4.2 update on my iPhone 3g. But after downloading and updating it, the phone is now stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' screen and does not move further. Tried the recovery mode operation also, but everytime in the end, it hangs at the end and shows the ''We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.' I tried all the usual suggestions of updating iTunes version and updating the Windows updates, but no luck. Even uninstalled the anti-virus. Please help.

My iphone 4 is stuck in the 'Connect to itunes' screen after updating to OS7.

I have an iphone 4 which worked perfectly before. I went through the update process to the latest OS and now I can't get it to progress beyound the iphone setup screen. itunes sees it fine and reads it fine but whichever option I pick it goes through the process, gives me all the progress bars etc and goes through the motions of restoring from backup but then it just loops back to the setup screen. Can anyone help please?

Hey MarcoCr,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your iPhone is currently in recovery mode. To resolve this, you will need to restore the device with iTunes:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

Stuck on "connect to itunes" screen after trying to update

Update was interupted because of "unknown error"
Now my Ipad is stuck on "Connect to Ituns"
Have tried to reset by holding both buttons for a long time but still only returns to Connect to Itunes sceen.
Itunes does not recognize the ipad.
Anyone any ideas exept for turning it in for service

Makes sure you disable any antivirus or software firewall on your desktop. They can get in the way of the update, causing this problem.
Have you actually got the update downloaded yet? If not, it might be helpful to download and install separately

My iphone 5 is stuck on the connect to Itunes screen after I downloaded the update, does anyone know what to do?

I've tried holding the power button and home button simultaneously while connecting my phone to itunes but it still doesn't recognize my phone. I have uninstalled every component of itunes and run the device manager and I've really done all I think I can do. Will I have to take my phone to the apple store or are there any other solutions?

Mine gave me an error in itunes side that it didnt recognize the phone. But when I unplugged and re plugged it it was fine. Or is yours on the screen with the little plug? You might have to go to Apple. I have that happen to a friend on the 7 upgrade. She needed a new phone. oy!
